I’m a mental health professional with a deep and varied background in education, counseling, human services, and advocacy. Over the years, I’ve worked alongside adults, youth, and families navigating trauma, identity shifts, life transitions, and the lasting weight of systemic challenges like poverty, incarceration, and intergenerational trauma.

I’ve spent nearly two decades working in behavioral health, supporting people through trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life challenges. I believe healing happens best in a space where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard. My work is especially grounded in supporting individuals who have felt marginalized or overlooked, and I approach therapy with compassion, curiosity, and care. My style is collaborative and personalized. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor our work to your needs, goals, and pace. I draw from well-researched therapy approaches that focus on building emotional awareness, processing difficult experiences, and strengthening coping skills. Together, we focus on helping you feel more grounded, confident, and empowered as you move forward in your life.

I hold an MS in Psychology, an MS in Clinical Counseling, a certificate in Play Therapy, and a PhD in Educational Psychology. During my training and internship, I focused on supporting children and adolescents through difficult experiences, and I continue to use that foundation in my work today. My goal is to meet each client where they are, build a caring relationship, and walk alongside them as they discover their strengths and find healthier ways to cope.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
